Headlight wire harness connector.

I need one as my left side one is burnt and wont power the bulb. Where's the best place to get one? I saw
http://www.ebay.com/itm/2x-Xenon-HID...-/301631761645 on ebay, but not sure of the quality.

This is it in the picture.

It appears that the connector in your pic is actually attached to the ballast. I'm not sure if it can be removed, it appears to be sealed...

This is what I have

If you do need the entire ballast, here's what I've found on ebay:

we can go back to PM to further discuss, I only brought the conversation back to the forum to verify that my assertion is correct. The item you posted from Ebay is actually an extension adapter.

Let me know which one you need.

Thanks! If it sealed (will check my old one), I will have to get the entire piece. I've submitted the photo to my parts guy to see if can source just the connector.

Anyone know how to remove that black big connector on the base of headlight?

I tried pulling it out, but it won't give.

Glad you finished it up! I didn't have time to respond, but I was gonna tell you to be careful with that headlight washer, it's easy to break the clips off that hold it in place, if you're not careful.

Great work!
